* Hua! *
This time, the whole scene was in an uproar. Everyone was appalled. Innumerable eyes looked up at the sky. The smiles on the faces of most of the Huang Family members were frozen. In the Immortal World, only those who had reached the Heaven Immortal realm could fly using the spatial current. Those who were below the Heaven Immortal realm couldn't fly at all. Huang Haoran had a fortuitous encounter that allowed him to fly for a short period of time. This was beyond everyone's imagination. What they couldn't accept was that Jiang Chen could also fly. His speed was much faster than Huang Haoran's and the wings on his back were much more gorgeous.
"I've said it before. Being able to fly isn't a big deal."
Jiang Chen grinned at Huang Haoran. The Saint Sword flickered in his hand and he slashed at Huang Haoran. This slash was as fast as lightning and extremely sharp. It was like a ray of brilliant light flashing past, leaving only a trace of brilliance.
"Argh … …"
Huang Haoran let out a blood-curdling scream. His head was chopped off by Jiang Chen. His body fell from the sky and landed with a plop on the ground. Huang Haoran shouldn't be so weak. After all, he was a late Earth Immortal expert, but flying consumed a lot of his energy, which weakened his combat strength. After all, his light wings weren't like Jiang Chen's Flaming Wings that had fused with his body.
More importantly, when Huang Haoran saw Jiang Chen suddenly flying up, his mind was in a mess, which led to him being killed by Jiang Chen.
"Haoran!"
The second brother of Huang Family cried out in agony. Huang Haoran was his own son, the greatest pride of his life. Today, he was fighting for the glory of Huang Family. He had never thought that his son would be killed by Jiang Chen so mercilessly. How could he accept such a tragic ending?
"Jiang Chen, I'm going to tear you into pieces!"
The second brother of Huang Family was infuriated. Both of his eyes turned red like a mad lion. Immediately, he soared into the sky and lunged at Jiang Chen.
Upon seeing this, Yan Dongliu naturally didn't dare to be negligent. He flew up to the sky instantly and blocked in front of Jiang Chen.
"Second Brother Huang, what are you doing?"
Yan Dongliu shouted angrily, but at the moment, he was incomparably happy because he had made the right bet this time. Jiang Chen had given him a great surprise. Now that the Prefecture had won two rounds, the ore mine would belong to them. Moreover, Jiang Chen had a boundless future. He believed that in the near future, it wouldn't be Jiang Chen who would rely on the Prefecture, but the Prefecture who would rely on Jiang Chen. How could he just watch Second Brother Huang kill Jiang Chen?
"Yan Dongliu, get lost! This man killed my son. Today, I will tear him into pieces!"
Second Brother Huang was immersed in grief and anger.
"Humph! Don't forget that this was a competition. If Huang Haoran died, it meant that he was incompetent. Didn't your Huang Family also say that you want to kill Jiang Chen? Don't tell me that only you are allowed to kill Jiang Chen, but Jiang Chen is not allowed to kill Huang Haoran. Your Huang Family might be tyrannical, but don't try to act like this in front of me. A loss is a loss. If you can't afford to lose, get lost! "
Yan Dongliu harrumphed coldly and fully unleashed his aura as the Prefecture Lord. That was an inviolable dignity. Jiang Chen stood behind Yan Dongliu with a calm face. Yan Dongliu's bravery did not disappoint Jiang Chen. In fact, even if Yan Dongliu didn't attack, Jiang Chen wouldn't be afraid of Second Brother Huang. Even if he couldn't defeat Second Brother Huang, it would be easy for him to escape.
"That's enough, Second Brother Huang. Your Huang Family has lost. The grudge between you and Jiang Chen can be settled privately. But today's competition is fair and square. Do you still respect me, the referee, by doing this?"
Nie Yiyuan's tone turned cold. In fact, many people could see that Nie Yiyuan had begun to lean towards the Castellan's side. In Yan City, Yi Yuan Association had always been a neutral party. However, things were different now. The Castellan had obtained the ore mine. It was only a matter of time before the Huang Family was defeated. So, it was normal for him to lean towards the Castellan's side.
"Second Brother, come down."
Huang Ying said Leng Leng. Now that Yi Yuan Association had joined in, it would be disadvantageous to the Huang Family if they really caused trouble.
Second Brother Huang gritted his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do. He knew that it was almost impossible to kill Jiang Chen with Yan Dongliu's interference. Revenge for Huang Haoran could only be left for another time.
"Little bastard, I won't let this matter go."
Second Brother Huang glared at Jiang Chen like a viper and threatened him. Then, he flew back to the Huang Family's camp.
"Let's go."
Huang Ying glanced at the mine. Although he was extremely reluctant, he could only grit his teeth and leave with the Huang Family. If it was just the City Lord's Mansion, he might try to rob it at all costs. However, now that he had joined Yi Yuan Association, he had to abide by the previous agreement. Otherwise, the Huang Family would not be able to get any benefits if he caused trouble.
Yan Dongliu and Jiang Chen descended from the sky. Jiang Chen had also stopped his dragon form and turned into a sunny boy. If it wasn't for the fact that he had witnessed the battle just now, it would be hard for him to associate the current Jiang Chen with the terrifying and murderous image.
"Big Brother Jiang, you are amazing."
Yan Qingcheng came to Jiang Chen in high spirits. She looked at Jiang Chen with infatuation. It seemed that if she didn't have a trace of rationality, she would have thrown herself into Jiang Chen's arms.
Yuan Chengjun's hatred for Jiang Chen increased when he saw all of this. Today, he had schemed to kill Jiang Chen, but in the end, he was still disappointed. Yan Qingcheng had already fallen in love with Jiang Chen. This was something that anyone could see. To put it bluntly, as long as Jiang Chen was still alive, he, Yuan Chengjun, would never have the slightest chance.
"Ai!"
Yuan Hong couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh. He knew his son very well, but there was nothing he could do when it came to love.
"Grandmaster Jiang, you have really amazed me. I can't believe that a monstrous genius like you would appear in a small place like Yan City. If it wasn't for you today, our Prefecture would have lost our chance. Now that you have turned defeat into victory and obtained the ore mine for our Prefecture, according to our previous agreement, I should give you 20% of the Immortal Meta Stones. But now, I have decided to give you 30%, 20% from Yi Yuan Association and 50% from the Prefecture."
Yan Dongliu said generously. No one had any objection to such a decision. Obviously, Yan Dongliu was trying to rope in Jiang Chen by giving an extra 10% of the Immortal Meta Stones. A genius like Jiang Chen was worth the price.
"Never thought that Grandmaster Jiang would have such powerful combat strength and the ability to fly despite only being a half-step Earth Immortal. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it even if you beat me to death."
"That's right. Grandmaster Jiang is the lucky star of our Prefecture. Back then, when he first entered the Prefecture, he had concocted the Ardent Yang Pill to cure the Prefecture's cold poison. Now, he has obtained such a huge amount of wealth for the Prefecture. This is really rare."
"Haha! With Grandmaster Jiang, the Prefecture will have a boundless future. Huang Family will be defeated by us sooner or later."
… …..
The people of the Prefecture were beaming with joy. Their previous nervousness had completely vanished. Now, each of them found Jiang Chen pleasing to the eye. Almost all of them were trying to flatter him. Who wouldn't want to make friends with such a man? Who wouldn't want to build a good relationship with him?
Jiang Chen had become the focus of everyone's attention. Yuan Chengjun was like a gloomy mouse that could only hide in the dark. He was once the number one genius of the Prefecture, but under the halo of Jiang Chen, he was afraid that no one would take a second glance at him.
"Haha! Congratulations, Brother Yan. Now that we have acquired the ore mine, I think it won't take long for us to start mining."
Nie Yiyuan approached Yan Dongliu and said with a smile.
"That's right. I will send some people to mine later. Yi Yuan Association can also send some people to supervise the operation. Of course, the 20% that I promised you will not be less."
Said Yan Dongliu.
"Alright. It's decided then. We will start mining the Immortal Meta Stones tomorrow."
Nie Yiyuan clasped his fists at Yan Dongliu and left with the people of Yi Yuan Association.
That night, the Prefecture was filled with cheers and laughter, singing and dancing. It had been a long time since the Prefecture was so lively. In the garden of Nuo Da, a dozen banquet tables were set up. It was a celebratory feast, and the main character was Jiang Chen.
Yuan Chengjun and Yuan Hong were the only ones missing in today's celebratory feast. However, these two incomparably important figures in the Prefecture seemed to have been forgotten all of a sudden. Even if they didn't show up, no one mentioned them. Everything in the banquet revolved around Jiang Chen.
Compared to the cheers and laughter here, a courtyard of the Prefecture seemed incomparably deserted. Yuan Hong and his son were sitting in a room with a gloomy face.
"Dad, I can't swallow this."
Yuan Chengjun stood up from his seat abruptly.
"What else can you do? With your current strength, you won't be able to kill Jiang Chen. I advise you to put all your energy into cultivation, and stop thinking about love. "Jiang Chen said.
Said Yuan Hong.
"Dad, as long as Jiang Chen is here, we basically have no status in the Prefecture. Today, Yan Dongliu held a grand banquet, but we didn't show up and didn't even invite us. Now, all their attention is on Jiang Chen. What are we? You can be considered as one of the people who has made great contributions to the Prefecture."
Said Yuan Chengjun.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Hong couldn't help but frown. It was impossible for him not to feel uncomfortable.
"Dad, given your strength, you can dominate a region in Yan City. Why do you want to be under someone else? Since Yan Dongliu is heartless to us, then don't blame us for being heartless."
A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Yuan Chengjun's face.
"What do you want?"
Yuan Hong looked at his son.
"I have already discussed with Huang Family. We will get rid of the Prefecture together. By then, the Prefecture will belong to us and we will divide the Immortal Meta Stones equally."
